    Just my personal experience but mapmyrun seems to be short (100-200m) versus my car. Anyone else found this?

    It's because when you're driving you're always on the right side of the road, and when you map it out, you could be going straight down the middle and the further you are from the inside of the turn, the further the distance. After a lot of turns it all adds up. Just make sure you map on the side of the road you ran on and it will be almost exact.

    I love mapmyrun.com!
    I also think its funny how they have like mapmyride.com, mapmyhike.com, mapmywalk.com, mapmytri.com too and i don't know what else.

    I showed it too my coach and he also teaches at my school and then he blamed me for not teaching his class anything because he was busy mapping out runs for the team to do after school. ha oops
